The Dog House Megaways

The Dog House Megaways is a 6 reels-row slot by Pragmatic Play, released in 2020. Its published return to player is 96.55%.

How The Dog House Megaways plays

Wilds land only on reels 2 to 5 and carry a 2x or 3x multiplier; several wilds in one win multiply together. Three to six scatters let the player choose a bonus: Sticky Wilds gives 7 to 20 spins with wilds that stay put and resize with the reel, or Raining Wilds gives 15 to 30 spins with up to six wilds dropped in each spin. Neither bonus can be retriggered.

Theme: Dogs. Filed under Animals and nature.

Features in this game

  • Megaways: A ways-to-win mechanic where the number of symbols on each reel changes every spin, so the count of winning ways changes too.
  • Sticky wilds: A wild that stays in place for more than one spin, usually through a respin sequence or a whole free spins round.
  • Multipliers: A value such as ×2 or ×10 applied to a win, a spin or a whole feature, multiplying the amount paid.
  • Free spins: A bonus round of spins played at no extra cost, usually triggered by scatter symbols and often with extra features.

What the figures mean

An RTP of 96.55% is a long-run average across millions of spins. It works out at a house edge of 3.45%, so every £100 staked costs £3.45 on average. A session of 200 spins at £1 stakes £200, and the expected cost of that session is £6.90, although the real result will usually land a long way either side. Work out your own figures.

Playing in Great BritainBonus buy is not offered on GB-licensed sites: the Gambling Commission told licensees on 17 Jan 2020 that bonus buys breach its Remote Technical Standards. The UK-jurisdiction demo build returns no purchase option. The game has no ante bet. Every online slot in GB runs with a minimum 2.5 seconds per spin, no autoplay and a stake cap of £5 per spin (£2 if you are 18 to 24). The GB rules.
